On February 27, Beijing time, the Nets, who have lost 15-13 in the past, finally played a tough game, and they narrowly defeated the defending champion Bucks by 3 points on the road. Irving's 38+5+5 data in the comeback battle became the number one winning hero, while the two new signings Curry Jr. and Drummond performed eye-catchingly, plus the veteran Dragic debut was in a decent state, allowing Irving to praise the new teammates after the game for being selfless, but it was also interpreted by public opinion as a satire on Harden.
The Nets have only won two of their last 15 games, but two wins are thanks to the excellent play of two new signings, Curry Jr. and Drummond. With Durant continuing to recuperate and Simmons still not adjusting to their form, the Nets' recent poor condition has become the root cause of their repeated defeats.
Now in a game against a powerful defending champion, the Nets can counterattack in the final moments, and Irving's outstanding performance in key moments is extremely important. Irving gave 14 of 26 crosshairs in this campaign, including 2 of 6 three points, plus 8 of 9 free throws, and the 38+5+5 data became the number one winner, and also crushed the letter brother's 29+14+6 in the core showdown.
Irving not only hit consecutive key goals in the final quarter, but also performed steadily in the final-minute free throw battle, he only conceded one goal to help the Nets win the game, while the alphabet brother did not perform well in 1 of 6 in the last quarter.
In addition to Irving playing a very stunning performance, the Nets' new signings are also extremely powerful, Curry Jr. 6 of 11 crosshairs more than 50%, especially the outside hit 4 three-pointers, becoming the Nets' top three-point shooter, scoring 19 points is also the second highest on the team. With Mills scoring 1-point in two consecutive games, Curry Jr. became the Nets' new outside lineman.
As for Drummond, even if he made 3 of 7 free throws, he ate pie 9 of 7, bombed down 17 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals and 1 block, and the plus-minus value +20 was the highest on the field. Drummond's key big hat in the final moments is undoubtedly an important contributor to the Nets' win, and it is also the new core of the Nets' interior line. Veteran Dragic made his debut with 14 minutes and 19 seconds, and on 2-of-5, he had 6 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists.
For the performance of a number of new signings, Irving praised after the game, "When you are on the court with those players who play without the ball, they are very selfless, they can go to the free throw line and think about the game. It makes my job easier and I can lead the team to the offensive finish at my best as a point guard. ”
Irving's words are undoubtedly words in the words, and they are also considered to be alluding to Harden, after all, Harden is a big core play with the ball, the opposite of Irving's no-ball playing style players. When Harden was on the court, the Lakers point guard, and Irving is now returning to the point guard role, naturally a lot of Irving's words are considered to be satirizing Harden, especially Harden and the Nets many players have contradictions.
